My fiance had his appointment on June 19. He was told that some info couldn't be verified and they would call him to schedule another appointment when the system came back up. They kept most of his documents including passports for him and his 2 sons. They have since called and requested an additional document. We sent it and it was received. I called to ask what we do next and was told they don't need anything else right now and he doesn't need another appointment. The lady I spoke to said it needs to finish processing. Our status has been updated on 7/6 to Administrative processing. Does anyone know how to tell if it is being further reviewed or if it's been approved, how will we know? Any idea? Anyone?

This is the black hole phase. All you can do is wait and keep checking the status. Everyone pretty much pends Administrative Processing. You can call Dept of Homeland security as they have limitted access tot he embassy files. However, no one will tell you a thing until you hit 90 days of Admin Processing. At which, your only option would be to contact your local congress/senator and request they submit a inquiry on your behalf. Other than that you will not know until it finally is updated with approved.
